Default California newbie
Hello everyone. I'm a 45 year old man living in Bakersfield California. I had gastric bypass surgery on April 25 2007. I weighed 301 Lbs. and now I'm down to 215. Just wanted to say hello to everyone. Good luck to all.

Default Welcome Robert!!
Hi there and welcome to the family!

I am also a newbie - only joined in July 2007 and still pre-opp.

As I know how intimidating this forum can be when you first start exploring it I thought I'd give all the newbies a few pointers as to the threads that made an impression on me:

Have a great time and I look forward to following your journey!

PS: If any of the "oldies" have any other threads to bring to our attention please let me know and I will add it to my list.

Hugs
